Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability strale-domain-age-check-ed272924
```

Example prompt: Can you check how old the domain phishing-site.com is? I want to know when it was registered to see if it's suspicious.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, auditable domain age check with cryptographic proof of result integrity — especially useful in fraud detection, phishing analysis, or vendor due diligence workflows where trust verification matters. Prefer this over raw WHOIS tools when you need a clean structured output with an audit trail rather than raw WHOIS text.

## Known failure modes

- Domain not found in WHOIS records — returns an error or null age
- Private/redacted WHOIS registration may limit available data
- Invalid domain format input returns a validation error
- WHOIS lookup timeout for certain TLDs with slow registrars
- Newly registered domains with propagation delays may return incomplete data

## How this service works

The trust layer for AI agents — 250+ independently tested data capabilities across 27 countries. Execute capabilities via REST, MCP, A2A, or x402 micropayments. Every call returns an audit record with cryptographic chain hashing.

## Output

Returns the age of the domain (typically in days/years since registration), the original creation/registration date, and a cryptographically hashed audit record confirming the integrity of the response. May include expiry date and last-updated timestamp depending on WHOIS availability.
